Guidelines - OPTION ANewspaper editorial - An editorial is an article in a newspaper or magazine presenting the opinion of the publishers or editors (which you will be). Must be written in an editorial style.
EDITORIAL INFO & TIPS: Type of editorial to choose from: 1. Criticize: These editorials constructively criticize actions, decisions or situations while providing solutions to the problem identified. Immediate purpose is to get readers to see the problem, not the solution. 2. Persuade: Editorials of persuasion aim to immediately see the solution, not the problem. From the first paragraph, readers will be encouraged to take a specific, positive action. Political endorsements are good examples of editorials of persuasion. 3. Praise: These editorials commend people and organizations for something done well. They are not as common as the other three. REMEMBER...

Guidelines - OPTION BPolitical Cartoon - A political cartoon is a drawing or comic strip containing a political or social message about people ,things, political events or situations, etc., in an exaggerated way. Usually political cartoons deal with controversial issues in a funny or ironic way.
